Wrangler 4.0L Clutch Question
 
How long does a clutch usually last on a TJ? I have a 97 with 81,000 miles
that seems to be going out. When you back off the clutch it seems to engage
immediately (like only backing off the clutch maybe half an inch). I have
had the Jeep for 20,000 miles.

Is a higher priced high performance clutch any better (worth the price
difference) than the stock replacement? Any particular brand better than
another?

Refill your clutch master cylinder reservoir with brake fluid.

You know Bill...you are very knowledgeable, and I respect you as a very good
source of information when it comes to everything Jeep related, however,
sometimes you can really piss me off.

Do you think I would post this message without checking that first?

Dunno, but I have 90K on my '99, and clutch seems fine.
